I should probably go to bed at this point. I typed up a short story of my arduous attempts at defending an outpost in the STALKER modpack GAMMA and how my game crashed when I turned in the quest. Sent off that post and woe-is-me, the entire text didn’t get submitted and I didn’t have it saved in copy-paste. It’s just so ironically fitting.

So ya, what’s something you’d like to ramble a bit about?

    Got to hit Street Fighter’s 6 training mode hard to learn some Cammy combos and also to practice some special moves (I’m not used to having a DP) and fundamentals. Getting bodied pretty hard by my friend lately, who mains Juri and plays JP on the side.

    Also want to get back to Strive and play some ranked matches and, if I get enough free time, resume my Dragon Age: Origin’s playthrough.

      I want to get it because it looks so nice, but I’m horrible at fighting games. DBZ fighterz was the only one I was mediocre at.

        There’s a demo on Steam if you want to try it out. If you’re struggling with move inputs, the modern control scheme helps a lot with easing you in on the game. And, apparently, the single player mode World Tour is really well-made while teaching you some fundamental concepts effectively (I haven’t tried it yet, that’s what I read).

        Unfortunately, I don’t really have a video or a review that describes the game in a newcomer-friendly yet succinct way. You can always search for rooflemonger’s street fighter 6 videos. He has a 30 minutes long review of the game if you can stomach it. He also has an hour-long beginner’s guide and a 2 hours-long(!!) character guide if you really want to get into it or if you just found a character you vibe with and want to know more about them.

          I tried the demo earlier; I didn’t think much of it, but that’s probably more because of demo restrictions than actual game issues. The world tour never really got into very interesting tutorials of strategic dynamics, and I couldn’t try my hand against humans.

          If they have a full free weekend at some point, that could be perfect for me.

            Yeah, the demo could’ve had more stuff, I had way more fun in the open beta, to be honest. I still think it can give people a general idea of what it’s about and its new mechanics but yeah, I see your point.

            I wouldn’t expect a full free weekend any time soon, unfortunately.
